Stainless steel holder with sanitary flanges as inlet and outlet connectors, which are integral parts of the top and bottom plates used for the in-line installation.
- Chemically compatible
- Flow rate for water at 1 bar (100 kPa, 14,5 psi), 2 L/min with 0,2 µm, 4,5 L/min with 0,45 µm, 11 L/min with 0,8 µm pore size
- Width of 142 mm holder is 231 mm (in height of the clamps) or 293 mm (at the end of the legs) and in 293 mm holder is 416,5 mm
Constructed of top part, base, corrugated iron, locking clamps, stainless steel legs and valve body 1,4401 (AISI 316), PTFE-coated stainless-steel filter support and back pressure screen, silicone O-rings in the top part and filter support, Viton valve O-rings, PTFE flat gasket on valves.
In 142 mm holder suitable clamp allows, with the legs removed, the adjustment of the outlet to any height. In 293 mm holder has the three legs, they are shorter and screwed in vertically to give a very stable footing to the holder with a larger diameter. The swing-out mechanism of the locking clamps is very practical, as there are six clamps.
The arrangement of the air venting valve in the top part and the sample removal/test valve in the base guarantees safe sterilization of the device with a mounted filter. The swing-out clamps ensure leak-proof installation simply by hand-tightening. However, the filtration area is four times larger in 293 mm holder than 142 mm, correspondingly the flow rates are higher, and the in-service life is longer.
The back-pressure screen is very easy to mount and has a smooth surface to avoid damages to the membrane filter, even when no glass fibre prefilter is used. The filter support is designed for the maximum exploitation of the filter area and minimum flow resistance, as is confirmed by the steady increase of flow rates with increasing pore sizes.
Certifications: Complies with GMP.
